For those not familiar, this is a spoof on a quote from the book Dune by Frank Herbert: https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/3634639-dune

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Frank Herbert, Dune (Dune, #1)

For those who actually like to be able to cut and paste text (cursed screenshots...always with the white background).

I must not buy. Buying is the purse-killer. Buying is the little-dopamine that brings total bankruptcy. I will face my wishlist. I will permit the limited time sale to pass over me and through me. And when it has expired I will turn the inner eye to see it's impulses. When the mania has gone there will be nothing. Only $ will remain.

Me when steam sales from like 2010-2016. Since then, all the good old stuff I bought a decade ago and all the good new stuff still costs more than I could pay for it elsewhere.

it would be nice if I got to keep money I didnt spend, but it gets taken from me anyway, so why not buy another plushie

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

You could just save money that doesn't get arbitrarily taken from you.

…I gave into steam this time :(

At least I kept it under 100 this time ..

[–] EldenLord@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Yeah, me too. I also kept it under 100 new games this time around.

Sometimes, you gotta live your life and do some purchasing.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Clever. For me simply not being interested in buying stuff is sufficient.
